It's kind of a mixed bag of feelings here, but after talking it over with a couple of the fellas I decided that i need to let this go. I have a bit of a financial situation that needs taking care of and this has literally sat on a shelf in the box it came in since i received it several years ago. I do have some other stuff from tony which will stay here. Selling this board was not a conclusion that I had come to lightly.
This is the Nightmare Tony Ghosts n Goblins prototype that he had worked on. From what he told me when I received it, this was an early english revision for this title. The massive epoxy was apparently to keep people from stealing the chips (lol) while it was in the proto stage. This romset has not been dumped yet- I had reached out to the mame team a couple of times, but nothing ever came of it.
I ended up with this when we were fundraising for tony's cancer treatments. I think it's only fitting that since thats how I came into it, i will take a portion of the proceeds and donate it to the American Cancer Society in his name (this was his preferred charity).
I know this isn't a normal item to put up here- Local pickup is encouraged, however shipping is available. If you want it shipped: I will double box it (including the romstar kitbox he shipped it to me in) and ship it fedex (or whatever service you prefer) with signature/ insurance/ etc... to ensure it gets where it needs to go. If you are within a few hundred miles me I could feasibly meet a buyer in the middle somewhere. I would really prefer to keep it in the states, but would ship it elsewhere for the right member. To my knowledge, this is the only one of these out there.
Pricing is difficult so I'll put it at what he was originally looking for- $5000 shipped (this will include that earlier mentioned donation).
I'll get some more and better pics up soon.
